fun eats: Dinosaur Rice Krispie Treats

So, we still have the dinosaurs roaming around our house…no extinction yet ;)

Today we are headed on over to the snack arena to make some fun dino-rrific rice krispie treats!

Yippee Ki Yay! I mean…RAWR!

P.S. As I write this post…ummm, yeah, they are already all gone and I just made them today! :(

We are basically following the package recipe (the one on the Rice Krispie box) for Rice Krispie Treats, but with a few twists & turns :)

As you will see below, I also used a jellyroll pan instead of the traditional pan it calls for. This was important for the thickness; I didn’t want them too thick for the cutters. As you can probably guess, the sandwich cutters worked better than the cookie cutters. The sandwich cutter shape is bolder with less detail than the cookie cutter, creating better dinosaur shapes. With the sandwich cutters, I was able to cut out the dinosaur shapes closer together and waste less krispie treats.

How fun! My boys would love this! Thank you for sharing this at Saturday Show and Tell. I can’t wait to see what you have for this week! I look forward to seeing you there.
